Bought an 14 rt yesterday. Next thing i would like to do is install a blu ray for the kids. The ac controls seem to be in the way where the blu ray would normally go on the ceiling. Plus there is a bump thing before it that i think wouldnt allow a blue ray. I guess i can look for something built in the headrest but if anyone has any input please share. First time looking into this. woukd prefer something on the ceiling. Worst case i can buy the portables that go wrapped on the headrests with wires everywhere but would like to avoid that. This would be professionally instslled.

You can find some headrest mounts specifically for the active headrests, I had them on my JGC before I traded it in and sold them on ebay. I forget who made them but will dig around but doing a quick search for "active headrest DVD player" should work. The ceiling will be tough with the controls and the A/C ducts.

Probably Cheaper to just get them couple of iPads/ Tablets for the same cost. Portable at the same time and they're not just stuck with watching movies. They can play games as well. Just saying...

The wifi gets to be expensive if you're using it on a daily or even semi-daily basis. For road trips (especially vacations), it's not a huge deal. I'd be happy to pay $10 for wifi for a day if it meant keeping my kid happy while being stuck in a car for a 8-10 hour drive. It beats having to mess with my wireless plan and add on a hotspot service to my phone.

I believe it is unlimited, I used it 1 day via uconnect on my drive from MD to FL. My three kids were all on their individual tablets or phones watching netflix and youtube while my wife was doing the same on her phone. Cost me $10 and didn't hear a peep out of anybody :)
